So ive gotten everything ready for header installation. Beer, friends, tools and bolts.... not to mention gf serving the beers haha. I do not have the helms manual tho so I was just wondering if anyone could tell me the torque specs required for the install.

I think I will also do the AEM CAI install on the same day. I dont really think those have any torque specs right? on a side note I need to get the radio code also before I take off the battery. I will take pictures the entire day and maybe finally do a detailed DIY for everyone.

Thanks in advance.

 

not sure of the actual specs but just snug tight with a little muscle behind it will do. don't try and gorilla them on there.

 

I'm pretty sure you don't want to try to replace a busted manifold stud-I have and it's not much fun

From the Helm's manual...

Manifold nuts (8 x 1.25 mm) - 23 ft-lbs lube threads w/ motor oil; manifold to exhaust pipe (10 x 1.5 mm bolts and nuts) - 40 ft-lbs; exhaust pipe to cat (10 x 1.25 mm) 25 ft-lbs. Acura recommends replacing all self-locking nuts w/ new nuts.

 

just what i was looking for. thanks so much.
